> you don't profit off of ad blocking. Brave's entire business model is around stealing from content creators.

It's opt-in. I downloaded the browser, I am using it, and I see no ads, and Brave makes no money of ads.

In order for me to see ads, I have to go into the settings and turn on the flag.

In order for Brave to profit, the user has to go into the config and turn some setting on.

I fail to see how this is stealing, because Brave does not get revenue unless the user takes some specific steps.
